The guy contacting the streaming services hoping to hit the jackpot with a bug bounty: they literally don't care until it's public, and when it's public it's a Microsoft problem.
The only reason they're using playready it's to make happy the copyright trolls and being compliant with the content license. The streaming services they just choose a solution that does the job with the minimum amount of work and money.
Seems like he wasted months for nothing. Next time try to do bug hunting on WordPress, it's easier and more remunerative.
An exception might be nowTV from sky. Being copyright trolls themselves they would spend years in development to reinvent the wheel if there was a 0.1% to block pirates.
In 2018 I was given a 6 months coupon for their service. I wasn't able to watch a single minute:
For Android, at the time it was available on just 5 whitelisted Samsung Galaxy S devices (of course with strong root checks)
For windows it required to install Microsoft silverlight even if it was discontinued years before by Microsoft itself, giving users a big security issue (using a discontinued web plugin that has direct access to the os is not a good idea)
Linux support was completely missing
Oh damn I forgot about silverlight. Only thing I used that was for some random Twitter client.
The streamers are the content owners.
That's why the market is so shit now. Because everyone who owns anything split into their own streaming service with 2 shows and 200 pieces of shit.
